“The uncertainty and fear in the context of the current pandemic provide us with the opportunity to become more familiar with the truth of impermanence and our habitual seeking for control. The Buddha Dharma often teaches the reality of uncertainty in our existence, with change and death being certain. We can choose courage and compassion as valid and supportive practices to guide us, day to day,\u00a0 breath by breath, to maintain a happy heart and healthy mind. During this session we will also learn the Tibetan meditation called<\/span> tonglen,<\/span><\/i> the practice of willingly taking on suffering and sending out loving kindness, as an effective way to grow our courage and compassion.”\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tsunma Tenzin Dasel is the lead teacher and meditation guide at her home center Tashi Gatsel Ling in Maine, USA. She collaborates with several ME high schools to give talks on Buddhism and guides meditation for the students and teachers. She returns to TGL once a year.<\/span><\/p>\n

An experienced practitioner and teacher of meditation, she is the founder of Maine Mindfulness Project in the USA. She has instructed thousands of people and helped many through counseling and meditation.<\/span><\/p>\n
